Who will copy a new, unpopulated double sided PCB, commercially?

[Chris Wilson]

I had some double sided, plated through hole PCB's designed and made commercially, and although always promised the design files, they never got sent and like a fool I never got around to chasing it up. My stock is now low and I find the company has disappeared, presumably bankrupt or disbanded. Are there companies who will take a new, unpopulated PCB and make copies of it? I don't want thosands, perhaps one hundred or so. Thanks.

Was it the same place who did the design that actually made the PCBs?  If not, the board house may still have the Gerbers in their system, worth getting in touch with them about a repeat order.

It was a tiny UK company that started up and needed support, but unfortunately they never seemed to really take off and have now vanished. Needless to say they did the design from my near fag packet schematics AND then produced the (nice) boards, so that's sadly not an option, but thanks for the idea.

I've PM'd you. E-mail me board details.

Seems odd that would physically make the PCB too, might be some markings on it that identity who physically made it.

If you have the names of the people you dealt with, look them up on LinkedIn. Maybe they could tell you who actually fabricated the boards. There's also a small chance that someone still has the files.

What size is the PCB?
How many components on it?

Just scan bought side and send to a PCB maker Most  will make, perhaps will charge one extra engineering fee

In China it's easier to do that than buy milk

They never cease to amaze me.

Thanks for the replies, I have a scanner at work, so next time I go in, (I have been working from home during the lock down) I will see what resolution it is. If necessary buying a better one is an option for this. Much appreciated, thanks everyone.

I needed similar thing with that pcb and
i did the reverse engineering with Sprint Layout.
Open schematic is problem when doing it with S.L.

Hello everyone, very sorry for the late reply and many thanks for the offers and suggestions. I have been unable to gain access to the workplace where my last PCB's are stored due to them being closed because  of the virus. I hope to be able to get them next week though, so I hope to be in touch with those that wanted a photo soon, thanks again

Ok, just shoot me an e-mail when you're ready.
